Mallorca claim that they have not received official word regarding an approach from Internacional for striker Fernando Cavenaghi.The future of striker Fernando Cavenaghi remains in doubt after Mallorca admitted to being unaware of any approach from Internacional to sign the player.

The Argentine, who is currently on loan to the Primera Division club until the end of the season from Ligue 1 side Bordeaux, was thought to be on his way back to South America after the Brazilian outfit announced earlier in the week that the 27-year-old would be joining them on a short-term arrangement.

However, Inter have since released a statement claiming: “The signing of Cavenaghi has been delayed with good reason as the documents to allow the player to travel to Port Alegre to undergo medical examinations with not arrive until tomorrow [Thursday].”

Furthermore, AS reports to have no knowledge of the former Spartak Moscow attacker leaving the club any time soon, although Cavenaghi’s representative, Nestor Sivori, stated: “The case should be settled today, for better or worse, because it is not good for the player to be in this situation.”

Should Cavenaghi be leaving the Balearic club, they would prefer to resolve the issue as soon as possible to allow them to swoop for an alternative before the current window slams shut on Monday.
